Herr GodTid's favorite cake is the Pavlova cake.
It is named after the Russian ballet dancer Anna Pavlova,
and is a wonderful cake dessert that suits many occasions.
Pavlova cake is easy to make.
The trick is to get a good, crispy base that melts on the tongue.
My tips for achieving this are to make sure that the eggs are at room temperature,
if you don't have time to wait, you can put the eggs in a bowl of lukewarm water,
while measuring and preparing the other ingredients.
Otherwise, it is very important that you use a clean, dry bowl
which is not made of plastic. You also have to separate the egg whites completely from the yolk.
It is also wise not to make the ring on the baking paper too large, because the cake tends to float a little in the oven.
If you shape the meringue into a bowl, the cream and berries will not flow out when decorating.
I usually sprinkle a good, dark chocolate on top of the cake.
Others use sugar or caster sugar, possibly nothing.
Good luck to you!
